Reply To: Fastening of 1/2" Plywood to match height of old engineered hardwood for LVP

Hi Joe… On those 4 x 8 sheets of 1/2″ plywood that I’m gluing and stapling to the subfloor…. Can I butt them right up against each other on all 4 sides? (Or do they need some space between them like 1/16″ or so? I’m guessing you may say it doesn’t matter if I butt together due to stapling the seams every 1 inch but I want to ask to be sure. I’m starting it Saturday morning… hopefully you’ll see this early and can reply.) ???? Thanks!
